50. Facebook

Platform(s): iOS

This was the year Facebook got serious about mobile. If you couldn't tell from its purchase of Instagram and the roll out of its own Photo app, then the company's standard smartphone app should have been evidence enough. After fielding complaints about the programs slugging performance, the team completely rebuilt the app and optimized it for faster performance. Now hopping on Facebook on your phone doesn't have to be a chore.
